Should you get it
Use it if you need
- ✓delegated cloud batches: bug fixes, dependency updates, tests - in parallel, with a PR as output
- ✓GitHub commands: add the jules label to an issue - and the task goes to the cloud
- ✓a free entry into cloud agents: 15 tasks/day on the Jules $0 plan
- ✓Google ecosystem: integration with Gemini, billing through Google AI, extension for Gemini CLI
Choose it as Google’s free-to-start async agent for delegating batches to the cloud with a PR at the end; not as a daily terminal agent or for model choice
Pass by if needed
- ✗daily hands-on work in your own repo - the terminal-agent category (Claude Code, Codex)
- ✗model choice or BYOK: Jules is locked to Gemini, you cannot bring your own key
- ✗a bet on open source: the product is proprietary, with no core repository or self-hosting
- ✗
The Jules plan is $0 (15 tasks/day); for a real workflow - Jules in Pro $19.99/mo (~100 tasks/day) or Jules in Ultra $124.99/mo (300 tasks/day) through a Google AI subscription.

Installation by surface
Web (jules.google)→
Main surface: connect a GitHub repository, describe the task, and Jules clones the repo to a cloud VM, shows a plan, executes it, and returns a PR. Asynchronous: start it and walk away.
→Sign in with a Google account, connect a repository, and describe the task with acceptance criteria
>_GitHub→
Add the jules label to an issue (or assign the task) - Jules picks it up in the cloud and opens a PR. The main delegation path for teams living in GitHub.
→Install the Jules GitHub app and add the "jules" label to an issue
>_Jules Tools (CLI)→
Terminal companion: run and manage tasks without leaving your workflow, TUI dashboard (/remote, /new). Sign in with a Google account. Since 02.10.2025.
$ npm install -g @google/jules$ jules>_API (alpha)Preview→
Programmatic task runs from your own systems: tickets, cron jobs, CI. Slack, Linear, GitHub integrations. Alpha: the specification may change.
>_Gemini CLI extension→
Orchestrate Jules from Gemini CLI: assign background tasks (bug fixes, refactoring, dependency updates) while working synchronously on something else.

Who is measured and how it is calculated - AI agent ranking
● agent ≠ model
An agent score is always a "Jules + model" pair. There is no Jules pair in AA Coding Agent Index or Terminal-Bench - we show the engine benchmark (Gemini 3 Pro) and status, without substituting a third-party leaderboard for Jules.

What it can do: autonomy, techniques, character
Autonomy axis
Jules's autonomy axis shifts to the cloud: not an agent in your terminal, but an async session in someone else's VM. It scales from task assignment to PR acceptance; the price of autonomy - review at the end.
Jules· covers the entire axis
01Task setup
task from the web, GitHub issue, CLI, or API - the developer's machine stays free
02Autonomous session
Jules clones the repo into its Google Cloud VM, creates a plan, shows it, and executes it itself
03Parallelism
several simultaneous tasks: 3 on Free, 15 on Pro, 60 on Ultra
04Acceptance

Free access
Yes: Jules plan $0 - 15 tasks/day, 3 concurrent
A real ongoing free tier, not a trial: 15 tasks per day (rolling 24h) and 3 concurrent - on the base Gemini model. Enough for regular small delegations, unlike Devin (a serious fleet starts at $20) and Junie (the agent consumes 3 free credits for a trial). Heavy-work volume - Pro $19.99/mo (5× limits) or Ultra $124.99/mo (20×).

Limits
Tasks/day + concurrent: Free 15/3 · Pro 100/15 · Ultra 300/60
The limit is counted as tasks per day (rolling 24h) plus a concurrent-task ceiling. Free: 15 tasks/day, 3 concurrent. Pro: ~100/day, 15 concurrent. Ultra: 300/day, 60 concurrent. There is no "task = $X" formula: the tier determines volume. Pro figures differed across sources (75 at launch, then 100 in current docs) - using the live page.

Risks: privacy and control
Code privacy
Private by default: does not train on private code; isolated Cloud VM
Google: Jules is private by default and does not train models on private repositories. Each task runs in a fresh isolated Google Cloud VM (repo clone, dependency installation, edits). Exact retention periods for logs and artifacts are not publicly specified. Code goes to Google Cloud and its Gemini models; no self-hosting.

Open source
No: proprietary Google Labs product
The core is closed, with no product repository. The public github.com/gemini-cli-extensions/jules is only a Gemini CLI extension for orchestrating Jules, not the agent source code. You cannot fork it, and there is no self-hosting. Unlike open Cline (Apache-2.0) and OpenCode (MIT).

Jules or Devin - two cloud async agents
One genre - cloud tasks in a VM with a PR at the end, split by price and model. Jules has a serious free entry tier and is locked to Gemini. Devin is a paid configurable fleet with model choice and delegation from Slack/Teams. The split - "free on Gemini" versus "configurable fleet".

Frequently asked questions
How much does Jules cost?
Free $0 - a genuinely permanent tier: 15 tasks/day, 3 concurrent, on the base Gemini model. Jules in Pro $19.99/mo - ~100 tasks/day and 15 concurrent, access to the latest model (Gemini 3 Pro). Jules in Ultra $124.99/mo - 300 tasks/day and 60 concurrent, priority. There is no "task = $X" formula: the tier determines the volume (verified Jul 8, 2026).
There is no workaround with your own model: Jules is locked to Gemini, with no self-hosting. For an open agent, see Cline or OpenCode (BYOK, local models).
Jules or Devin - which should you choose?
One genre - a cloud async agent, the fork is price and model. Jules is genuinely free at the entry (15 tasks/day for $0) and locked to Gemini; a PR as the output, payment through Google AI from $19.99/mo. Devin is a paid fleet of parallel sessions (from Pro $20/mo, the per-message price floats) with a choice of model (Fusion router, in CLI/Desktop all the way to open source) and delegation from Slack/Teams. Want to try cloud delegation on Gemini for free - Jules; need a configurable fleet with model choice and team integrations - Devin.
Jules or Antigravity - what is the difference between Google's two agents?
Different genres, both from Google. Jules is a cloud async agent: you run the task in a Google Cloud VM (web, GitHub, CLI, API), the output is a PR, your machine stays free, the engine is Gemini. Antigravity is an agent-first IDE (a VS Code fork): an Agent Manager panel with parallel agents and browser verification right on your machine, the Gemini 3 engine plus Claude and GPT-OSS. Need to delegate batches of tasks to the cloud and forget about them - Jules; need a visual agent orchestrator inside the editor - Antigravity.
Is Jules free?
Yes, genuinely: the permanent Jules plan gives 15 tasks a day and 3 concurrent on the base Gemini model - enough for regular small delegations, not just a trial run. That is softer than Devin (a real fleet from $20) and Junie (an agent pass eats the 3 free credits fast). For a stream of heavy work - Pro $19.99/mo (5× the limits) or Ultra $124.99/mo (20×).
Which is correct: Jules, Google Jules, or jules?
Canonical name - Jules (a Google Labs product, jules.google). Do not confuse it with Google's other agent - Antigravity: Jules is a cloud async agent (task in a VM, PR as output), while Antigravity is an agent-first IDE. Google has both on our board.
